i haven't heard the mixes where they talk over it, when i saw soul clap there was no mic action and it was a pretty chill crowd

this hot creations/crosstown rebels sound was pretty refreshing when it first came out. "l word", "forward motion", "without you" are aces. but then they keep retreading the formula to the point that it became boring and predictable. I can't stand Maceo Plex.

I can't wait for the inevitable curation of Hot Creations because it will be one disc of great post-minimal vocal house and it will be all I need.

im very tempted to start a separate s/d thread but i really really love everything ive heard on the life + death label partic the pillowtalk ep from late last year:
anyone have suggestions/thoughts??
― # (Lamp), Wednesday, 25 January 2012 04:26 (1 year ago) Permalink
i like both pillowtalk eps, probably like the one on w+l even more than that ^ one tho. what else is on that label?
i think what hot creations is doing has a lot more in common with azari & iii style vocal house revivalism than anything else, and i love it - even tho yes it can be somewhat formulaic

theres a dOP 12" 'after party' that i really vibe and a bunch of remixes by ppl that i vaguely recognize. they arent updating their website which is p lol but they only have four 'official' releases
― # (Lamp), Wednesday, 25 January 2012 05:10 (1 year ago) Permalink
listeners like who? what's a listener like me? might want to update your ilm filofax.
also love this, it's like "you've fallen completely into their trap"...OR maybe there's no problem with speaking on the mic, they just say really stupid cringey shit.

worst one is actually soul clap

39.30...it's just fucking awful. i had no prob with the BIS set.
doesn't help that the song is dire too.
x-post he actually does sound like jesse pinkman here imo.

The original mix of "Soft" is a good pop song. But that Life & Death remix sounds just like every other Tale of Us remix.

well too much of a good thing is not good, bro. I mean, I enjoy all of tale of us previous remixes but when I heard this track, I thought, oh not this bass sound again.

I've been trying to find out some ID's from this mix. Maybe someone could help me here? This is one of my favorite mixes in 2011.
http://mnmlssg.blogspot.com/2011/08/ssg-special-john-osborn-panorama-bar.html
The tracks that need ID-ing:@ 06:00@ 19:00@ 25:00@ 30:00@ 32:00 (wow!)@ 36:00@ 43:00@ 48:00@ 89:00
whoa that's a lot.

yea... was going to say, i dig most of what i've heard from tale of us. i get the impression that i value aesthetic consistency more than other ppl itt based on this and other comments re: hot creations
didn't really pay this one much attention until the ra eoy poll but it's excellent (also turns out it's on life and death. i will now pay attention to this label)

^ benefits from using a similar vocal style to art department but not falling prey to using the same damn cadence over and over again like that dude tends to do

re: Todd Terje
the new/original productions on 'remaster of the universe' sorta hinted that he might start doing the whole wacky live band thing a whole lot more
His remix of Bjorn Torske's Langt Fra Afrika is more along these lines - I hear a real bossa nova influence in it, it's fun enough but kinda disappointing in the context of his current run of original material.
